It might hurt, yes. I am already quite confused by what is meant to be
done in the Brave New World described in this thread.

Pointing to a document that gives a set of tools is helpful – now I have
only the confusion of figuring out whether all my development and
deployment environments can use those – but that document becomes *less*
useful as you add more decisions I need to make.

That describes the purpose of an announcement like this. I'm now aware
of the change that's looming.

On the conitrary, the point of the section of the guide, for a user like
me, is to *simplify* the actions I need to take to survive the
transition.

Adding more options to decide between, however well-intentioned, will
work against that purpose.
